  1. Legends: MAI = Multiple abdominal injury. SAI = Single abdominal injury. PR = Prehospital Response. Time in minutes. < 15 = less than 15 minutes. < 60 = less than minutes. TOS = Time on scene. CT = Computerized tomography. RT = Response time denotes time from alert to arrival at scene. TER = Time to ER denotes time from alert to arrival at the emergency room, i.e. total prehospital time. OM = Operative Management. NOM-S = Non Operative Management Success. NOM-F = Non Operative Management Failure. TCT = Time to CT denotes time from arrival at ER to start of CT examination. Time in median (range). * = p < 0.05.
